Mauro Molinari commented on POOL-131:
-------------------------------------
Meanwhile, couldn't exceptions be propagated, maybe inside RuntimeExceptions? In the use case
I mentioned, I think it's very bad that exceptions are totally lost, also because they're
affecting the correct behaviour of the pool.
If it were just a logging issue, I would agree with you.

> Key: POOL-131
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/POOL-131
> Project: Commons Pool
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Environment: Spring Framework JTA transaction Manager + jBossTS + DBCP
> Reporter: Mauro Molinari
> Fix For: 2.0
>
>
> In our environment it happens the following. Suppose our code has a bug and does not
release a connection previously obtained from DBCP.
> Suppose a JTA transaction is in progress when this happens.
> When trying to commit this transaction, Spring has a guard that realizes that the owner
of that transaction is in some way "dead", so it tries to close the connection before committing
(I think this is a problem, however, let's go on). Closing the connection makes DBCP/Pool
call returnObject on the GenericObjectPool, then addObjectToPool and, at last, passivateObject.
As the connection is neither in auto-commit mode nor read-only, passivateObject issues a rollback
on the connection but then jBossTS throws a SQLException saying that it is not allowed to
issue a rollback on an underlying connection while a higher level JTA transaction is in progress.
This exception is caught by returnObject and it is completely lost, because returnObject does
not log it, nor it forwards it upward.
> The final result is that:
> - the connection is not given back to the Pool, because of the exception
> - however, the physical underlying connection to the DBMS remains open
> => we have a connection leak, without any proof of it (no exceptions are logged in
any way)
> To get to these results I had to carefully debug my code. It would have been very easier
if Pool logged exceptions thrown during passivation.
